Reviews
This 128 page book features 50 mostly high-profile logos sorted by a unique number of categories, and a short history and/or story on each mark. The category separation is what I enjoy the most about this book… eg. “personality with letters, monograms, symbol with weight, mnemonic, humor, secret signs” which makes idea generation easy.Overall, this short book is a great visual reference to 50 logos that JUST work! You can quickly flick through the pages and instantly get a new idea for your own logo project, making it an incredibly value resource and worthy for your book shelf! Thanks for another incredible book, Steven!
